Hi,
I am using the Storage Works Raid controller but am having difficulty making
the transition from JBOD disks to RAID-5. My UFS filesystems on the 3 disks
look something like this when the RAID level is JBOD:
/dev/re0a /
/dev/re0g /usr
/dev/re1a /data1
/dev/re1g /data2
/dev/re2a /data3
/dev/re2g /data4
Each disk has a separate disklabel using the SWXCR disktab type (re).
However, once I set up the 3 disks as RAID-5 and boot into OSF/1, I am only
able to disklabel the re0 device:
disklabel -rw re0 SWXCR
re1 and re2 are no longer recognized, as the 3 disks appear to be
grouped as one volume (re0).
My question is this: how can I set up all of my original UFS
filesystems on this new RAID logical drive. Are there other device files I
should be using? Is it a requirement to move to AdvFS or can I restore my
original UFS filesystems. I appreciate any help and will summarize. Thanks.
